One of the best explaination I've found to O-27 "VS" O gauge. Very charming explained! THANK you! I think the O-27 (or whatever radius O-...) looks a bit better because it's finer. Also the ties looks nicer/ slim. Although I like the black ties more than the brown. I my opinion the O or 0 (zero) gauge is the best scale (~1:45) outdoors, indoors. I have Amercian Flyer S gauge, but more because they made better technics than Lionel. Or let us say they were more inventive. T-trackprofile 2 track AND A.C. (great!) and the T even in tin-steel and not as a ful profile. Cordially Géréon

Lionel says they may resume O27 production if the supply dwindles and the demand rises. They make track in very large batches, and if it takes 5-6 years to exhaust the supply, it's not worth it. Meanwhile, there is plenty of O27 available on the secondary market.

Even though each manufacturer had its own proprietary systems, a great deal of standardization took place in the O Gauge world. I use Lionel, K-Line and Marx track mixed together on my O27 layout. Since the 1970's, most couplers are compatible, and even in the 1950's Kusan and AMT made Lionel-compatible couplers [Marx was the weird one in that vein]. I'm amazed that I could run a Lionel locomotive from 1917 and an MTH locomotive from 2021 on the same layout if I wanted to!

Some things of note: The O gauge track was also made in 054 as well. I often wondered why the regular straight sections were shorter on the 027 as compared to the 0 standard gauge straight. I think the answer is geometry. When making a figure 8 crossing the parts have to fit, if they were longer they would not fit without having to have pieces cut to make it fit. Maybe that goes back to the Ives 027 design as well. Also in reading other comments, one has to be wise when using mixed other brands and different radius curves to have the correct crossover. A 027 crossover will not fit correctly with standard 0's shape. There are different cross overs for different brands and track lengths so having the right one or the correct radius curves does matter.
@ToyTrainTipsAndTricks2 жыл бұрын
Cutting tubular track is easy to do, and is sometimes necessary even if you use a single brand and track radius. For example, try making an 027 using O42 curves (O27 profile) and you MUST cut track because half sections of O42 curves are not available. Thanks for the comments!

I've noticed that Marx O27 track is virtually identical to that of what Ives used before being bought out by Lionel. Sakai made a track that looked like a combination of Lionel and Marx (using the double hole ties as Marx/Ives, while also using rails and pins identical to Lionel). The O27 track piece you've shown at the beginning might be Sakai, assuming those are the original track pins. Interestingly enough, Ives also made a banked 27" diameter curve, but in traditional O gauge tubular track profile, I have a few of them lying around.

You can either run the zip ties around the track ties or through the nail holes in the ties depending on the size of zips you have.

Nice to hear you refer to the zero gauge historical context. Really puts the age of the trains into the early pioneering days, it's good. Anyway, your thoughts please: admittedly I haven't any O to try, however I believe that proportionally, O31 is identical to standard in geometry. Right, back to your thoughts; the 90 degree crossing, with two standard turnouts (standard is 210, 223 etc, same as the O31 turnout) placed curve to curve, the crossing being on the straight. Period Catalogues depict this arrangement fairly regularly. Problem is, it doesn't work - the crossing being sized for a figure 8. Did kids just assemble layouts with large gaps between the rails? Did lionel depict their layout designs without checking if they actually could be assembled? Did no one care? For all peoples grief about 3 rail tinplate toy train track, theres something quite magical about it. And it works. Fantastically enjoyable channel by the way, so good to hear someone who is so knowledgeable, and actually has a clue about toy trains from the past. If you're interested even postwar Marklin were still labeling what we today know as HO as "null null", this being zero zero, catalogues obviously referring to gauge O as spur null (gauge zero). The originators bing just named it table top, Henry Greenly (the proginator) seemingly to vaccilate between OO and HO for the same product. Anyway, keep up the good work
@ToyTrainTipsAndTricks3 жыл бұрын
Well, there's a lot to digest there. As far as the turnout/turnout/90 degree crossing layout, I cannot say for sure regarding standard O or Standard Gauge, but I know it works for Lionel O27 because I have done this many times on different layouts. As far as rail "gaps", well - there is often a bit of "wiggle room" in 3 rail track, so sometimes the layout designs were "close enough". Thanks for the comments!

On on-off type accessories like the gateman and crossing gate, it's really pretty easy. Wire one terminal of the accessory to your constant voltage "hot" power. On each of the two (or more) activation tracks, create an isolated outside rail [On tubular track, unfasten the metal ties and insert a spare track insulator, strip of paper, or small piece of electrical tape around the rail where the tie goes on one of the outside rails. Then reattach the ties. Add an insulated track pin to each end of the isolated rail. You have now electrically isolated your outside (common) rail.] Run a wire from the isolated outside rail to the common post on the accessory. [For multiple tracks, attach EACH of the isolated rails to this post]. When the train(s) passes, the metal wheels will complete the circuit from the regular outside rail to the insulated rail and complete the circuit to activate the accessory.
@ToyTrainTipsAndTricks3 жыл бұрын
It's similar to this, except this shows the accessory running on track power. For your application, you want constant voltage so the power from the multiple tracks do not cross-feed. So, the wire going to the center rail connection in the diagram goes to accessory power instead. photos.app.goo.gl/xXqcwy9J1FVdWHpf6

There are two parts to the answer. First, the original version of the 1121 turnout featured a different motor housing than those of 1954 and onward. Once the turnouts were redesigned, some F3s were considered O and some O27 for marketing reasons, but both will navigate the modern O27 turnouts. As for the original horizontal motors, Lionel marketed these strictly as O gauge models. While I do not own any of these myself to test, I have been told by knowledgeable operators that the horizontal motor trucks have less lateral motion available to them and thus they struggle with O27 curves. I hope this helps.

I have an old issue of model railroader magazine from the 1940s an advertiser advertises a sheet metal type of roadbed that Lionel track dress fits right into and makes it look so much more realistic as well as the pieces lock together so you can hang your layout on a wall when you are done playing with it back when you played with trains. I called a guy who used to offer rubber roadbed for standard gauge track and he was done with it and he offered me the machinery to produce it for free. If I was thirty I'm might have taken him up on it because there are lots of people who have nice standard gauge layout and the rubber roadbed is similar to what American flyer made for it s tinplate track. I was at a train show and I purchased a whole suitcase full of standard gauge track including some switches and a crossing for $20. I like to get standard gauge cars and locomotives for decent prices not sky high BS collectible prices. I believe if I am not mistaken that Marx made track up to 0-54. I have a almost complete circle of their 042 track . M a r xo-27 profile track is better than lying else because it has more ties per piece of track making it look more realistic if lional had any less than three ties holding their track it would fall apart. There was an American flyer commercial on TV where a guy steps on a piece of Lionel track picks it up showing it being deformed and promoting its lack of quality. This was one of the reasons they Rush super-0 into production prematurely. Super o gauge track was 0-36 so you could use the atlas track planning books in making your layout. I still have some of those when they were priced at $2. My dead uncle gave them to me. Back when he was still alive I mean you know. I had an outside layout with some old American made lional track and some new Chinese made lional track and the chinese-made track turned black and crumbled away in 6 months forcing me to redo the layout. It also did not conduct electricity very well and I needed 5 lock on to make sure electricity got all the way around the layout. Imagine The pride you had in the old days working at Lionel trains and in one day you could make 800 train sets. After WWII because the Russians did not pay us any of the 11 billion dollars we gave them to fight the Nazis everything tripled after the war in price. Lionel wanted to continue to pay employees pre war wages so people had to strike to get a decent paycheck nowadays they would just shipped the whole factory to China and you would be out of a job. Frankly for what the manufacturer's charge for crap made in China where they pay $2 an hour they could make the trains and everything here but they would make less profit because they would have to pay their employees a wage they could live on. This was also the reason for the Nationwide railroad strike in 1947.
